?24: Chapter 24: Incomplete Heterogeneous Fire Map 24: Chapter 24: Incomplete Heterogeneous Fire Map The battle between the Long Family and the Lin Family was utterly one-sided.

    Just in terms of momentum, the Long Family had the upper hand.

    The five elders had taken Blood Burst Pills and raised their strength to Earth Martial Realm’s Second Layer.

    Together, with Long Xinghe, who was in the Earth Martial Realm, the Lin Family couldn’t stand a chance.

    Even the strongest of the Lin Family, Lin Zhennan, was in grave danger under the siege of the Great Elder and the Second Elder.

    This was an outright massacre.

    Long Yan was the cruelest and most efficient on the battlefield.

    He employed the Poison God Finger technique to target the Lin Family disciples below Spiritual Martial Level Six, none of them could match him.

    The sounds of fighting, screaming, and the smell of blood filled the air, turning the Lin Family Mansion into an Asura hell.

    Severed limbs, rivers of blood, and corpses were scattered everywhere.

    The battle lasted merely an hour, and all members of the Lin Family were slaughtered, except Lin Zhennan.

    The Long Family side suffered several injuries and several deaths.

    However, all in all, they emerged victorious.

    At this moment, the five elders were besieging Lin Zhennan, who was wearing a battle armor – a Yellow Rank Spirit Tool, the Heavenly Frost Spirit Armor, which was the Lin Family’s family heirloom.

    Even with the protection of the Heavenly Frost Spirit Armor, Lin Zhennan was severely injured and was at the end of his rope as the five elders attacked in unison.

    “Lin Zhennan, everyone from the Lin Family is dead.

    It’s time for you to join them,” the Great Elder coldly said, and then launched a fierce palm strike towards Lin Zhennan.

    “Ah...

    I’ll take all of you down with me!”

    Lin Zhennan looked like a madman, suddenly, a surge of violent energy erupted from his body, his strength skyrocketed, and then he charged fiercely in Long Yan’s direction.

    “Not good, this old fellow is going to self-destruct!”

    Long Xinghe’s face changed, realizing that the combined force of the Earth Martial Realm’s Second Layer self-destructing could be on par with the Earth Martial Realm Third Layer.

    “Stop him!”

    The Great Elder yelled, and all four elders stood in Lin Zhennan’s path, unleashing a joint attack.

    Boom.

    Suddenly, Lin Zhennan’s body exploded, releasing a devastating force that crushed the combined strike of the five elders and flung them away.

    “Puh.”

    Almost at the same time, the five elders spat out mouths of fresh blood, gazing at the unfolding scene in disbelief.

    “Are you all okay?”

    Long Yan stepped forward to inquire.

    The five elders had taken Blood Burst Pills, allowing them only to reach the Earth Martial Realm Second Layer.

    They were no match for a true expert in the Earth Martial Realm Second Layer, thus they were lucky to be alive.

    “We’re fine.

    As long as Lin Zhennan’s dead, these injuries don’t matter.”

    The five elders were severely injured, but they were satisfied with having killed Lin Zhennan, taking blood vengeance for the Long Family.

    “Take these Snow Lotus Pills.”

    Long Yan gave two Snow Lotus Pills to each of the five elders, which was enough to heal their injuries.

    Next, Dragon Star instructed his people to move all the valuable items from the Lin Family to the Long Family.

    Long Xinghe, Long Yan, and the five elders went to the Lin Family’s treasure vault.

    Inside the Lin Family’s treasure vault, there were many Spirit Stones, Elixirs, precious medicinal materials, and many cultivation techniques and combat skills, which now belonged to the Long Family.

    “Didn’t expect the Lin Family’s treasure vault to be richer than ours.

    This is perfect for cultivating strength for the Long Family.”

    Both Long Xinghe and the five elders were delighted.

    These items were the foundation of the Lin Family that had been accumulated for over a hundred years, and now they were sufficient enough for the Long Family to cultivate a large number of experts.

    Long Yan wasn’t interested in these items and casually walked around before preparing to leave.

    However, as he was about to leave, his gaze unintentionally fell upon a dusty treasure box.

    Clearly, it hadn’t been opened in a long time.

    Out of curiosity, Long Yan opened the box.

    “What is this?”

    Inside the box was a piece of beast skin.

    When Long Yan saw the contents on the skin, he became very excited.

    “What is it, Yan’er?”

    Long Xinghe walked over and asked curiously.

    “Uncle, there’s a trace of Strange Fire’s aura preserved on this beast skin.

    It should be related to a Strange Fire.

    It seems to be a fragment of a heterogeneous fire map, this is just extraordinary.”

    Long Yan laughed and said.

    “Strange Fire?”

    Upon hearing this, Long Xinghe and the Five Elders were surprised.

    Although they knew about the existence of Strange Fire, it was extremely rare, and they had only heard of it.

    “It’s a pity that this beast skin is incomplete.

    If we can find the other parts, we should be able to obtain information on the Strange Fire.”

    The beast skin clearly had another half torn away.

    Only when the beast skin is pieced together completely can the information recorded in it be known.

    “This is a pleasant surprise.

    We must find a way to obtain the other half.”

    For him, the Strange Fire was essential, as the Nine Suns Divine Art he cultivated required the integration of the Strange Fire.

    The formation of the Pure Yang Star through the Pure Yang Qi vortex needed to absorb the power of the Pure Yang, and to evolve into True Yang, the absorption of the Strange Fire was necessary.

    “Yan’er, you are an alchemist.

    If you can integrate the Strange Fire, it will greatly benefit you.

    You should keep this Heterogeneous Fire Map.

    Perhaps you will be lucky enough to find the other half.”

    Long Xinghe said.

    Even though The Heterogeneous Fire Map was very precious, if put up for auction, it would sell for a sky-high price even if incomplete.

    It’s unknown how the Lin Family got their hands on it.

    But finding the other half will certainly not be easy.

    The next day, as the morning sun rose, Ling Wu City boiled like an earthquake had occurred.

    The Lin Family had been annihilated!

    “Heavens, in just one night, the Lin Family has been annihilated.

    The Long Family has a ruthless method.”

    “You don’t know shit.

    It was the Lin Family who first started with the Long Family.

    This is called an eye for an eye, the Lin Family deserved it.”

    “From now on, Ling Wu City will belong to the Long Family.

    The Long Family has produced a genius, Long Yan, and has also received the protection of Manager Fang.

    They are going to rise!”

    “Long Yan is not simple.

    He has a deep mind and is good at hiding his strength.

    He’s like a shining star rising, unstoppable.”

    “Sigh, if only the young prodigals in my family could be like Long Yan, I’d be willing to enter the coffin.”

    ...

    Many people gathered outside the Lin Family Mansion gate, discussing in hushed tones, all mentioning one person: Long Yan.

    “Young Master, get up and have breakfast.”

    Zhang Yibai went out early in the morning and bought breakfast for Long Yan.

    “Little White, you’ve been looking good lately.”

    Long Yan opened his room door, walked out, and teased Zhang Yibai.

    “Hehe, Young Master, you truly are the most brilliant and martial young master in this world.

    My admiration for you is like the endless river...”

    “Stop, stop.”

    Long Yan hurriedly waved his hand to interrupt Zhang Yibai, saying, “This young master doesn’t like to hear these flattering words; don’t say them anymore.”

    Zhang Yibai smirked and said, “Young Master, you don’t know, this morning, Little Cui from the front courtyard actually spoke to me and said she wants to be my girlfriend!

    Haha, I never dreamed of it.

    Young Master, it’s your brilliance that brightened my dark life.”

    “How is Ah Man?”

    Long Yan asked.

    Ah Man was a mystery that even he couldn’t figure out.

    “Ah, don’t mention it.

    That guy eats all day besides eating; even pigs are ashamed when they see him.

    I really don’t know how big his appetite is.

    Now, ten cattle a day are not enough to fill his teeth.”

    Zhang Yibai said.

    “Well, give him as much as he can eat.”

    Long Yan nodded slightly.

    “By the way, Young Master, I specially prepared a gift for you.

    You will definitely like it.

    It took me a lot of connections to get it.”

    “At least you have some conscience.

    What gift?”

    Long Yan glared at Zhang Yibai and continued eating breakfast.

    Zhang Yibai took out a well-prepared exquisite gift box and said, “Young Master, this is a good thing, called Hanging Hundred Catties.

    Look at this name.

    As long as you eat this thing, you’ll be able to lift a hundred catties heavy thing.

    Impressive, right?”

    “Get lost!”

    Long Yan’s forehead was covered in black lines as he kicked Zhang Yibai out.
